Hoping to chart a new path forward in the wake of the controversial "Fast and Furious" investigation, the newly assigned head of the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives said Wednesday that "everything is under review" in the way of investigative practices and processes at the agency.

The furor over "Operation Fast and Furious" focuses on tactics used by ATF investigators in Arizona to target major gun-runners. Launched in late 2009, the investigation planned to follow gun purchasers in hopes that suspects would lead them to the heads of Mexican cartels. But high-powered weapons tied to the investigation ended up at crime scenes in Mexico and the United States, including the murder of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry late last year.

New ATF Head: Weve Got to Hit Reset on Investigative Moves in Wake of Fast and Furious (Too Late)

Another one of 0bama's simple minded pinheads - once the genie is out of the bottle, you can't get him back in. The liberal lunacy of 0bama's minions have already cost lives and even if they shuffle the underlings around like musical chairs, they're not going to get those guns back! IMPEACH and REMOVE Holder and 0bama!

And this guy has Got to know he is a pawn.His political future maybe even his life is on the line here.I can’t imagine an evil man like Eric Holder being so stupid he would put somebody in ,even as a throw away, who would not do some damage to America on his way down. Remember Holder as well as
the ) both seem to have big stakes in this game.Question is which one has the dead mans hand?

Nothing more than getting fired or reassigned for conspiracy and being an accomplice to multiple murders is what passes for justice for those people who enforce those kinds of laws over us. Remember the murderer FBI agent Lon Horiuchi who killed Vicky Weaver and her son? Remember the FBI, ATF hot siege on Branch Dividian Compound in Waco Texas under Janet Reno who had to call in the Delta Force Army Unit commanded by Gen. Wesley Clark who then torched the compound murdering innocent men women and their kids? Janet Reno’s testimony to Congress was they had to kill the children in order to save them. Not one of those people have ever been held to account, in fact, our Gov. pushed reset on both.

Actually there was SERIOUS talk about doing exactly that nearly 40 years ago. Remember the term “jackbooted thugs” to describe the ATF? That term was coined by none other than John Dingell (D-MI) when his committee was investigating ATF abuses in the 1970s.

The real reason why the ATF was not disbanded then was because their personnel were so substandard that no other federal agency would take them. And so, the cancer was allowed to fester and spread and grow.
